#
# SYNOPSIS
#
#   AX_EXPAND_PREFIX
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   When $prefix and $exec_prefix are still set to NONE then set them
#   to the usual default values - being based on $ac_default_prefix. -
#   this macro can be AC_REQUIREd by other macros that need to compute
#   values for installation directories. It has been observed that it
#   was done wrong over and over again, so this is a bit more safe to
#   do.
#
#   remember - setting exec_prefix='${prefix}' needs you interpolate
#   directories multiple times, it is not sufficient to just say
#   MYVAR="${datadir}/putter" but you do have to run `eval` a few
#   times, sth. like MYVAR=`eval "echo \"$MYVAR\""` done atleast two
#   times.
#
#   The implementation of this macro simply picks up the lines that
#   would be run at the start of AC_OUTPUT anyway to set the
#   prefix/exec_prefix defaults. Between AC_INIT and the first command
#   to AC_REQUIRE this macro you can set the two variables to something
#   explicit instead. Probably, any command to compute installation
#   directories should be run _after_ AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
